After winning their first ever match in the I-League against defending champions Minerva Punjab, the Snow Leopards failed to score in their following three games taking just one point from it.

But, since the new signings have acclimatized to the cold weather now, they have won three on the bounce scoring nine goals in total and keeping two clean sheets as well.

Away teams are finding it tough to adapt to the Valley weather from the word go, which has further played the matches in David Robertson's hands as he uses an aggressive style of play to go along with the chilly conditions.

It will be interesting to see the tactics used now when the team goes on the road for straight 47 days.
